I personally find every religion fascinating. It is just like different cultures.

There are many misconcepts that were stated in class and I think it is very important for people to understand them and get them straight. I think of it like this, in every country there are &#8220;good people&#8221; and &#8220;bad people&#8221; and nobody can judge the whole country based on these &#8220;bad people&#8221; and their actions. This is the case for muslims too. I understand that people are driven from the terrorist acts commited by muslims in USA, but it just happened for them to be muslims. Those are not acts based on religion because no where in the Koran violence is toleretad.<\/p>\n<p>I think we are learning a lot and starting or continuing to appreciate the role of religion on people. Religion is all about peace and that is very important especially in our times.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last time in class we talked about Islam.
